I think he's given some indication of his tactical ability with the results v LFC and MC. Granted they were from the set up as underdog and taking a battering in the 2nd halves of both but it showed an awareness and ability to adapt, as has the change to the 343.
Basically we got the tactics fairly right and had good luck and good resolve in both matches. We'll need the same against Chelsea in the cup final.
I'm not so convinced that these are templates for the way to play. Essentially this is how the inferior team plays against a better side but more often then not you lose those games.The Liverpool game also camehcame when tbasically have us the result and difficult to read into it with the fast the season was done.
City was better but we played at the higher end of our capability and city were pretty poor finishing wide. Again that's not often going to be the case.
The other point to me is city and Liverpool are much more dominant and I don't think Chelsea will have the same approach if you look at is you know we really struggled when we have to break teams down so throw that into the mix and it's more difficult.
So basically not sure those games shows some tactical depth because they are so reliant on luck.
